We both felt really heavy afterward, and my mom even felt sick after eating there. It was just basic diner food and a bit overpriced for something you can get almost anywhere else. However, the cake that comes with the cornbread was my favorite part. SERVICE: The service was fine. It had more of a cafeteria-style vibe, so there isn't much to say about it. AMBIANCE: The inside felt very run down. The bar wasn't even finished and didn't look like it was ever used. Overall, it had a very hole-in-the-wall feel.

The chicken wasn't really shredded well and had huge chunks that had a lot of gristle in it. No seasoning on the chicken either.

I've heard great things about the potatoes so can't wait to try that next.

I went to the restaurant, looking for something local. There it was. Red beans and rice with a side of Blackened Chicken. The place is ancient. If those walls could talk.

I was in town for work and this spot came highly recommended. We arrived around 6 PM and were…read moreseated right away. The service started off strong--our waiter quickly brought menus and water. To start, I ordered the fried green beans. Honestly, nothing on the appetizer menu really stood out, so it felt like a safe choice just to have something on the table. No complaints, but the appetizer selection could use a little more variety. For my main course, I went with the New Orleans BBQ Shrimp & Grits, along with a side of the twice baked potato. The shrimp were tasty--no issues there--but there were only about 4 or 5 pieces, and the sauce was overly salty. I ended up eating the shrimp and leaving the rest. On the other hand, the twice baked potato was fantastic--definitely the highlight of the meal. I ordered the bread pudding to go, but it was a bit underwhelming. Definitely not their best, and I wouldn't order it again. Overall, the service was excellent, and the food ranged from good to great. I'd recommend giving it a try. I have a feeling there's something on the menu I'd really love with a bit more exploration.

This is my go-to spot in Alexandria…read more I am not baller enough to stay at the Hotel Bently but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. Actually, that isn't true. I actually stayed at the OG Holiday Inn across the street from the Hotel Bently and found this bar by happenstance. So there I was, at the Holiday Inn for work and the bar was closed. Apparently, the bartender didn't show up for work and although the manager said I could tend the bar for the night, I was not about to start a new job. She recommended the Mirror Bar, located in the basement of the Hotel Bently. After assurances that I wouldn't be murdered walking the block to the bar, I set off. The Mirror Bar reminds me of a classy joint from a bygone era. Yes, there are mirrors. No, it is not some sort of weird place. I mention that because when I told people I went to the mirror bar they looked at me as if I was some sort of perv and I want to set the record straight. Back to the review. This is a nice bar with a nice selection of bourbon. Weeknights are pretty dead but don't let that stop you. In addition to bar seating, there are tables along the wall with comfortable chairs. Comfortable chairs in a dark classy bar? Yes, please. Prices are pretty standard for a hotel bar. Will I be back? of course. If you see me there, say hi and buy me a bourbon.

We ordered drinks from her and she pretty much slammed it on the counter. After that, she never came around to check on us to see if we wanted to order food. We wait for at least 10 to 15 minutes and had to get the attention of the hostess for us to order food. I saw her and Alexis other side of the bar chitchatting. She was standing there playing with her hair, brushing it out with her fingers which I think is inappropriate, especially in the food service area. Then another customer came in and sat next to us. when Felicity approached her, She introduced herself and the other server and was very polite to her. I really did not want to leave a tip, but the only reason why I did is because Alexis was very consistent polite and nice to us. She always came over to check on us to see if we needed anything.

If they had beef bacon I would ask them to add that too. It's was really good. I also decided to try their peach cobbler. Glad I did too, because it was very good, plenty of crust, just like I prefer it. I usually get it to go but stayed today. I don't know that they have ever changed the decor but it's giving 1960's segregation vibes. Even the waitresses give that vibe as well. They are professional and have never said anything out of the way.
